Chef Tatung Sarthou says technology big help in choosing everyday dishes
MANILA, Philippines — Celebrity chef Myke Tatung Sarthou believes that technology makes it easier for families to choose their dishes every day.
In an interview with Philstar.com during the launch of Nestlé Goodnes website, Chef Myke said that online recipes are very helpful to families.
"Actually 'yon talaga ang kailangan ng mga tao. 'Yung resources na to help them come up with ideas on what to feed their family. Of course, ang dami namang website, ang daming recipes available pero what this website adds to the game is 'yung ability mo to customize," the chef said.
The chef underscored the importance of easy-to-follow recipes that feature cost-effective and readily available ingredients.
"Also, based on limited ingredients. Kasi imaginin mo may tatlong ingredients ka, hahanapan ka ng recipe na using those ingredients, which embraces the reality dito sa Pilipinas na ang mahal kumain.
"Nakaka-save siya sa pamilya. Kasi minsan nauubusan ka na ng idea, paulit-ulit na 'yung gawa mo. Minsan masarap naman ang luto mo pero 'yung mga anak mo sawang-sawa na. So dito with a thousand recipes, makakahanap ka pa ng dish at pwede mo pang ma-costumize with three people or 12 people," he added.
